Cheltenham Camera Club Exhibi1on 2022
Welcome to Cheltenham Camera Club’s 2022 Exhibi1on in this wonderful art space. The club was formed 157
years ago in the pioneering days of photography. Since that 1me, photography has ‘developed’, taking on
new ideas and technology, to the amazing possibili1es that the present digital revolu1on has given us all.
Today, the photographer can capture moments of 1me that our forebears could only dream of. We can even
build an image to create our own reality – anything is possible. Indeed, images can challenge, inspire and
evoke a rela1onship with the viewer. We very much hope, as you walk around this exhibi1on, that you will
gain as much enjoyment from looking as we have gained from capturing.
We would like to thank Dr Anne Sutcliffe FRPS EFIAP PPSA for travelling from Solihull to give 1me and
considera1on in judging our work. Very special thanks go to Ian and all at Chapel Arts for hos1ng our
exhibi1on and to the Cheltenham Mayor, Councillor Steve Harvey, for his presence at the opening award
ceremony. We would also like to thank Linda and Terry Kirkhope who oversee the Gloucestershire Young
Photographer compe11on; our exhibi1on co-ordinators James de Courcy, Janice Clark and Ros Howard; and
Mar1n Fry for crea1ng the A-V sequences of the results. Finally, congratula1ons to the award winners, club
members and Gloucestershire Young Photographers for their celebra1on of photography.

Judge’s comments
I am honoured to have been invited to judge this year’s exhibi1on and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Many thanks
to the organisers and their team of helpers not only for their efficient management of the day but also for their
hospitality. It was a pleasure to see so many wonderful images; both prints and projected. I was par1cularly pleased to
see a large print entry. Print exhibi1ons were casual1es of the pandemic and their return is yet another hopeful sign that
we a returning to normality. There were numerous sec1ons and the standard of all of them was high. There were so
many memorable images. Consequently, I was regularly challenged when choosing the winners! My congratula1ons to all
of the award winners. You should be proud. I hope the exhibi1on is a huge success.Members with Images and Prints in the Exhibi?on

About Cheltenham Camera Club
Cheltenham Camera Club is the 6th oldest photographic club in the UK. It was started on 4th January, 1865
by Dr Edward Thomas Wilson, father of EA Wilson the explorer, and Dr Abercrombie, a colleague at the
Cheltenham General Hospital. Edward learnt his photography as a boy from his uncle, Francis Frith,
whose nineteenth century photographs are s1ll widely published today. With Abercrombie, he was one
of the early pioneers of photomicrography, and the photographing of landscapes and portraits using the
early dry plate process.
By the 1890s the club had over 60 members. Members enthusias1cally shared photographic techniques,
went on photographic ou1ngs and held exhibi1ons of their work. Eminent photographers over the years
have included Hugo van Wadenoyen FRPS, a very prolific na1onal exhibitor and author of many books on
photographic techniques, and Eric Franks ARPS who recorded the town during the post war period.
At the Club’s first exhibi1on in 1896 there was a staggering total of 900 images displayed. That
enthusiasm and ethos is s1ll very much in evidence at the club. Today, CCC has over a hundred members
and organises not only this exhibi1on, but the interna1onally acclaimed ‘Cheltenham Interna1onal Salon
of Photography’ which annually receives over 8000 images from around the world.
Gloucestershire Young Photographer of the Year 2022
Aker a gap of two years the Club is again pleased to organise this exci1ng
compe11on and display in conjunc1on with our Annual Exhibi1on. The
18th Gloucestershire Young Photographer showcases photographs taken by
pupils from Primary and Secondary Schools across the County.
Approximately 800 digital entries, one per pupil, were received from 32
schools: these were whidled down to about 200 and printed for this
display. Our special thanks go to Cheltenham Arts Council and the
University of Gloucestershire, for their sponsorship.
If you are interested in photography then why not join CCC?
We have talks, compe??ons and special interest groups covering all aspects of photography.
Cheltenham Camera Club meets weekly on Thursday evenings, September to May
Holy Apostles Church Hall, London Road, Charlton Kings, Cheltenham GL52 6HW
